Abstract:
Networks for Integrating New Americans, an innovative national initiative, identified, strengthened, and documented place-based models of immigrant integration that other communities can replicate and adapt. It positioned adult education programs as key contributors to local, multi-sector networks which were formed as the primary vehicle for promoting and advancing immigrant integration. The national initiative was led by World Education in partnership with Welcoming America, IMPRINT, and the National Partnership for New Americans which together coached the five networks. The technical assistance was underwritten by the Office of Career, Technical, and Adult Education at the U.S. Department of Education. ATTACHMENTS: ImmigrantIntegration Report Cover 1

Abstract:
Math for the Multilevel Classroom: A Focus on Unit Measurement COABE Conference 2016 session A close look at the College and Career Readiness Mathematics Standards for adult education will uncover concepts, procedures, and applications that span all levels (A - E). How can an understanding of unit measurement help a higher-level math student? What does it have to do with algebra? In this session we'll explore unit measurement by working through a lesson that incorporates key concepts and procedures that are essential for beginning through high school equivalency level learners. We'll work with vocabulary, discussion questions, hands-on activities, and differentiated activities that you'll be able to take home and try in your own context.

Abstract:
This conference session demonstrates practical strategies that adult education teachers can use to differentiate instruction and help ALL learners increase their writing performance. It also explores how to design instruction according to the principles of Universal Design for Learning (UDL), thereby contributing to a learning environment that challenges and engages diverse learners, helping them overcome their reluctance to write and find their voice. When teachers provide options for the ways that students access and participate in learning, they can motivate learners to reach their writing potential.

Abstract:
What does a lesson built for student learning look like when learners come to programs with limited or interrupted formal education? Students who lack home language literacy and exposure to a formal classroom setting need explicit training about "classroom culture." Instructors need to use systematic scaffolding and other research-based techniques to effectively equip learners with transferrable skills for tomorrow's workforce and civic engagement.

This presentation introduced participants to two tools that teachers can use to reach students when they are outside of the classroom, as well as introduce the "Padagogy Wheel," which is a tool that matches APPS to the different levels of Bloom's Taxonomy. Additionally, the "Wheel" introduces the SAMR Approach to Integrating Technology and shows how each APP matches with different levels of tech integration.
